Watercolor Tutorial: How To Paint Skin Tones

Showing you how to paint dark, medium, and light skin tones with watercolors. Once you know these 4 basic steps you can use them for painting any color of skin!

As with all things related to art, there are about a million ways to do everything and this is just how I go about it and it might not be what works for you and even I don't always do it exactly like this!
You also don't need to use the exact paints or colors that I use. Be creative and don't be afraid to experiment! ♡
